Spring is the best

It's that time of year again, Spring, Spring, Spring  (only you seven brides for seven brothers fans would get that reference)

I love the Spring!  I've been enjoying the weather and the beautiful sun that shines through my windows.  I've also enjoyed not wearing a jacket inside and cracking the windows open for some fresh air.  Sadly though I really don't have much to blog about so I thought I'd share some recipes I've tried recently.

Baked sweet and sour Chicken (served over rice)

Breading for chicken
3-4 chicken breasts
1 1/2 C cornstarch
3 beaten eggs
1/4 cup oil

Sauce
1 C sugar
4T ketchup
1/4 C vinegar
1/4 C apple cider vinegar
1T soy sauce
1t garlic salt

chop chicken into small chunks, dip in cornstarch then into the eggs, place in a pan with oil just so they lightly brown on the outside, then place on cookie sheet.
In a bowl mix the sauce ingredients, when mixed poor over chicken.

Bake 30min to 1 hour at 325  Don't over cook or the sugar tends to make it very hard.



Oreo truffles

1 pkg of oreos
4-6 oz cream cheese

in a food processor chop the oreos then add to softened cream cheese, once mixed well form into small quarter size balls, place on cookie sheet (with wax paper on it)  place in freezer for about 15 min.
Dip in white chocolate, or any chocolate really.  Keep refrigerated until serving.
